Earlier, makers released Janhvi's first look from the film on her birthday in March. When Jr NTR commenced the shoot on April 1, an intriguing video of the actor stormed social media. Tentatively titled NTR30, the movie is billed as a high-octane action drama set in the forgotten coastal lands of India.
